The Jellyfish

I had a quick play around with photoshop to try to illustrate our concept for the jellyfish lantern, as described in our post on our miscellaneous development page, here http://studiolimarchitecture-development.blogspot.co.nz/2012/08/lantern-modification-1.html. Basically we are adding tails to our lantern to try to stabilise it, as this is what tails on a kite do, and one of the main issues with the lanterns we are using is that if they tilt they combust. The tails also act in an aesthetic manner, as illustrated in this image. The tails make the lantern appear like a giant, floating jellyfish, which should suit our utopian idea very well, and particularly match the organic theme of our Waiheke inspired, city site hotel.
